Okay, so you all know what a fan of Ronda Rousey I am. In Women's Mixed Martial Arts, she is the UFC champ. She is an astonishingly admirable lady, brimming with confidence and wit. Some people call her arrogant, but then some people call ME arrogant, and we all know that's not true. Well, it's sort of true. Okay, it's true, but why be humble and boring when you can be arrogant and entertaining?
I am enough of a fan, in fact, that I sought out her signed gloves and won them at auction. Here they are, beside a pair of boxing gloves owned by THE greatest martial artist, certainly in living memory, one Mister Bruce Lee.
On Twitter, I follow two people. Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano. The fact that both people are very pretty women who can fight is a complete coincidence, I assure you. It's because of Twitter, however, that I heard about a project that Ronda's mum and sister are behind— something called Spirt Lake: The Game.
Spirit Lake, essentially, combines adventure video gaming with learning maths (or, as you Americans say, math), in an effort to make learning fun. Originally developed with Native American students in mind, they've realised that the Dakota (Sioux) angle— incorporating historically accurate aspects of tribal life and culture— appeals to people and schools right across America. And you get to fire arrows! At wolves! While you learn to count! What's not to love??
And if this works like they hope it will, this could be the beginning of something huge. This could revolutionise teaching, and learning— not just in America but across the world— and it could be just the thing that's needed to help struggling students make that singular, all-important leap. This could change people's lives.
So I heard about this, and the Kickstarter campaign they were running to fund the next stage of development, and I figured I may as well send some money over to help them along. After all, the better kids do in school, the longer they stay in school, and the longer they stay in school, the more chance they have of stumbling across my books, right? Right.
As a reward for helping out, they have given me the chance to actually BECOME a character in this game. But I couldn't possibly accept. The fact is, I am amazing. I am awesome. If I were to make a cameo appearance in ANY game, I would make every other aspect of the game pale in comparison. And I couldn't do that to all their hard work. So I asked Ronda's mum if it'd be okay if I could hold a mini-competition HERE, not only for my Ameriminions but for ALL my Minions, and the winner of THAT would get the chance to become a character. If you win, the animators will create an avatar using your name and likeness and as if by magic— you will be INSIDE a video game.
It'll be like Tron only... y'know... you probably won't die.
Probably.
And even though the game is only planned for release in America (right now), the competition is open to anyone of any age and nationality. So here's what you have to do. You have to tell me why YOU would be the most awesome video game character EVER. Once we reach the 5000 comment limit and the Comments Section closes, I shall collect all the entries, stick the names in a hat, and randomly pick the winner.
And yes, entering more than once, with DIFFERENT reasons, gives you a better chance of winning.
There. Bet when you opened up this Blog today you had no idea this was coming at you.

How could you do that BBC!!!!!!
John 'Hurt' my feelings!

You just saw it too?
I am literally crying here!
Just realized you were all talking about that anyway.
Don't mind my complaining

*Punches pillow*
DIE MOFFAT!!!!!!!
Hi, Taia and Death and Fire! *ninjaeroplanetacklehugs*
Omg, Death, you've just seen it?
I HATE MOFFAT TOO BECAUSE RIVER AND *sobs*
He looked a bit like a hobo, to be honest:/
I'M SO ANGRY!!!!!!!!!! I'VE NEVER BEEN THIS ANGRY BEFORE!!!!!!!
my teddy just broke... i punched it too hard...
NO FAIR!!!!!!!!!
*Does little angry jumpy-around dance thing*
GRRRRRRRRRRR
I am so angry I got the chills... I'm murderous...
I didn't see Doctor Who yesterday. ^^
But there's nothing wrong with old beard guys, I'm sure. I mean, some of the earlier Doctors weren't that young. :P
Hi! Day 3 of the cast on my arm another 39 to go! Yippee *frowns*
The doctor is an old bearded guy! Oh no I kinda liked the last doctor *Frowns* really an old bearded guy
BBC you have reached a new low
Matt smith where will you go from here? Is that the old doctor's name I forgot about the new/old series and missed three episodes so I'm on the prowl for reruns
When I say the old doctors name I mean't the actor. I should shut up
SAVE US FRIEND!!!
(He'll be on in a sec...)
dont worry, he wont be for ages, i have a huge theory that it is the last doctor not the next, and the 50th anniversary will be a movie!!!! in 3D!!!!!
Who'll be on?
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
WarZone!!
MOVIE I hear you say? Hmm.... *Grabs 3D glasses* when?
Hi warzone I don't know who you are or any other person on this but Hi
november, it will be on tv at the same time as the thearters in the UK
November same month as Catching fire my cinema will be seeing a lot of me.
maegan, im a friend of Death...one of her school friends
*nods*
Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of Matt Smith. I'm sure he's a good actor, but for me, he's not the Doctor. (Yes, I'm still getting over the departure of David Tennant, but that's not the point. :P)
I'm assuming Matt Smith's no longer our Doctor, because that's just how it seemed, judging by comments. I only saw two(?) epidodes of this series, excluding the Christmas Special, so, meh. :P
Hi, Warzone!
BFFL!!!!!!
*Tacklehugs*
You know, you came on here before Steph, who promised!
Dude. I am in love with Matt Smith. Tell 'em War!
A MOVIE¡¡¡¡¡
THATS SO AWESOME IT NEED UPSIDE DOWN EXCLEMATION MARKS!!!!!
hey taia, matt smith isnt finished yet, it was an intro for the last doctor, also he is in the 50th anniversary episode in november
I just found out..... their making a second avatar yes!
Duck, are you still trapped in that clam shell? I escaped. The one with the weird octopus people?
And a second pitch perfect!
yeah, death is completely right she is in love with matt smith
*Gags*
yeah,there is, any news on when it goes into production Maegan
Why gag I gag when I eat porridge which is everyday except weekends but why gag?
Because it is Pitch Perfect!!!!!!!
Go on IMDB is that it? Top anticipated movies of 2015 its on the list. I don't know about the production when it starts.
death hates the thought of pitch perfect, i dont understand y, im a guy and i think its a well made move, but that just might be because i want to get into film making after school
right, i love imdb, my favorite site after youtube
It's because it is a chick-flick. I hate chick-flicks even though I'm a teenage girl!!!!!!
You have to like pitch perfect fat amy is funny! But people have different senses of humour and if everyone was the same the world would be boring
Ok chick flicks are bad but I just like it because of fat amy. I'm superheroes all the way. And sci-fi but I don't like star trek or star wars. Also what is with them and stars
Yes, (btw, War hasn't read SP... I think he's read the first one... But not all of them... *clucks tongue*) and that is why SP is brilliant!
true, i like every sort of movie for some reason, its a very funny movie, did you know rebel wilson actually wrote part of the script for pitch perfect
I've never seen it. Or LoR...
i like SP, i keep meaning to read them, i just dont get time
*Facepalm*
This is where I tune out!
*Goes for a swim in the lake*
SP IS BEAUTAMOUS AND REALLY GOOD!
I'll make sure you do...
*Evil grin*
i watched the first ep of star trek last night, i love star wars, im more of a fantasy guy, Harry Potter is my Favorite thing EVER, i am obsessed, tell them Death
*Looks at cast* my stupid ar itches and I tried itching it but I made it worst what should I do?
arm itches not my ar whatever that may be
God. Do. Not. Get. Him. Started. If. You. Value. Your. Life.
Star trek movie is ok but last time I watched it I was half asleep as I was at a sleep over but maybe I can find some channel that has it on
My. Friend. Is. The. Same. As. Him.
ONE DIRECTION TICKETS

*Takes shoes off*
MARS!!!!!!!

Er, sorry for distance.
I don't like chick-flicks, and haven't seen Pitch Perfect.
@Warzone: Yay for film-making and motion picture appreciation! :3
@Mara: Hoorah! :D
I'm one of those friends, right?
*Makes puppy dog face*
*Gags* I hate one direction no offence but their soooo stereotypical I'm more a my chemical romance gal but they broke up so now I'm a fall out boy gal
Death, after being tortured for several weeks by those octopus people I finally escaped by scaring then and using all that ink as a diversion.
But one direction do make catchy songs
DEATH. *shocked face*
I THOUGHT YOU ONLY TOLERATED 1D. *is surprised*
BUT YES. *screams*
*dances*
No ideas for an itchy arm in cast? *smiles* please!
Ah, that was smart of you Duck. I still don't know why we call you that...
IF ANY OF YOU ARE MEAN TO WarZone I WILL SLAUGHTER YOU ALL!!!!
I going to see the great gatsby oh yeah
@Maegan: MCS and FOB are friendly friends, as far as I'm aware~ :3
Not that I know a lot of Fall Out Boy, but I've been meaning to listen for a while. MCS on the other hand, I know better than I know myself. :P
Er, if my typing is a little uncoordinated I apologise. There's a fruit fly wandering across my keyboard and I don't want to squish it. :P
Um... I might... Um... Really like them...
Damn... I knew I should have said nothing...
@Maegan: Fork.
...
*sulks*
ONE DIRECTION MAKE ME CRY WITH HAPPINESSESSESS. SURELY THAT'S GOOD, NO?
hehe. tickets.
Death - IF IT WAS IRL, YES YOU WOULD BE :)
sorry im back, not the star trek movie the original tv show OoO :D
thanks for the support Taia, i make youtube videos, but they are game commentary, i am hoping to make another channel for short films, but its taking some time for my first short, isnt that right death
Who are MCS are you on about MCR
Damn...
and
YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1D have only sung one good song, and they didn't write it
Yeah... Speaking of that... When are we going to talk about it... I want to... No.. NEED to know!
I was just saying I've only seen the movie. So it was just a starter of a conversation that never really started.
@Death a fork is a good idea but tomorrow I could be in the hospital trying to get a fork out of my cast
SO?! THEY'RE ADORABLE!!!!!!
MCS being Motion City Soundtrack.
Sorry, I should've made that clearer. I've been meaning to listen to MCR too, though, Maegan. :3
I'm not a fan of 1D, but I respect them. And, y'know, appreciate their making-people-happy-ness. :P
i like area 11, greatest band ever, sorry death :D

Nope area 11 maybe if I look them up on the laptoparoonie..... I might know them....

Mara, care to tell War what you room looks like? And all your merchandise?
who is it Death?
Nope... Hot guy was a dentist... Morw...
Hm. Aside from MCS, I'm a big fan of Farewell Continental. Because weird experimental noise is so honest, it's fun. :3
@Maegan: Not at all, MCS and MCR are only a letter difference, if you type 'em that way, after all. :)
30 Seconds to Mars, I've heard of, but don't know 'em.
@Warzone: Nope, but I'll look them up later. :3
Maralie Lily Charm.

@Duck: I agree. ^^
I don't have a lot to say for any of the eleventh Doctor's series really.
Maybe it's a generation-y-thing. Like, The Doctors I grew up knowing and loving were Chris and then David, so I'm more into those guys as actors, idk.
I thought some of the more recent plots were only kinda so-so too, though. :/
@Mara: *huggles* Wonderful ded. :)
And, thank you. :3
people know my true name, i say it at the start of every youtube video.. so soz everyone will forget now
Bye War
Great ded Mara :)
Dude, that is your given name, not true name! My true name is sealed and is Judipour!
okay.........what is going on????
@Duck: Er, given Name? If we knew his TRUE name, well, that'd be a little unfortunate for WarZone, no? :P
DAMMIT
Said something incorrect about SP.
I'm soooo sorry
I'm a disappointment :(
@Duck: No worries. We all make mistakes, no? ;)
In fact, just typing that, I almost put 'taken', rather than 'given' name. :P
*Hugs*
It's okay, I get them wrong all the time! I better be getting some sleep.. I do have school tomorrow and I drank two cups of coffee an hour ago so... I'm dead...
Bye-ish
